#clang When the tutorial provides good examples for all feature except Union, maybe it is a crappy feature with no good reason to exist. Sounds like they wanted VB Variants but weren't sure how to implement it. https://x.com/mistersql/status/1211049901213265921/photo/1

I'm not doing new year's goals or resolutions, I'm doing habit re-engineering. I'm a big fan of atomic habits: https://jamesclear.com/atomic-habits Focus on the mechanics of habits to achieve goals as a side effect.

Anyone notice- in Star Wars, many of the main characters are uneducated, as in not even 4th grade, certainly not college. Their character arcs take them onto a journey to roles reserved for the educated- Generals, Special Forces, Pilots
There are two tiers of Bad guys, the Sith and the educated technocrats that run the Empire. The Heros and the Villains both don't like the educated technocrats. The IT department is ugly monsters (ugnaughts, jawas, etc). Educated desk soldiers are morons.
♡ 2 ↻ 0The educated C3PO is a useless trivia filled coward, moron.
Anyhow, this "jealous uneducated men" vs "privileged educated men" thing has been going on for a while in US culture, at least since 1977.♡ 4 ↻ 0
60% of people in the US live in a desert desert. That why we should move to New Mexico. That and chile sauce.
(actually probably closer to 90%--- 40% of US is desert & people aren't distributed evenly)

META-IDEA: Twitter, but instead you give an ssh key to all your friends so you can all ssh into the same machine running byobu and then type messages with echo commands.
Got ghosts in the machine today...

Odd thing about this is that there is nothing Disney can do to appease Russia on this one, Star Wars doesn't say anything about Russian politics. https://x.com/mistersql/status/1210266442496651265
This is a state funded psyops campaign against Disney. Reminds me of North Korea's attack on Sony. https://x.com/mikeduncan/status/1210120670136459264
META: some tweets from big orgs don't show the ratio (likes to comments) any more, in an effort to make it look like people only approve of big org/company tweets
In a parallel universe vampires working in software development are arguing if it is a good career move to work Monday to Friday, 9-5 in addition to nights and weekends.
Did you hear about the branch of physics pioneered by Niels Bohr and Vietnamese Dr Ng? Probably not, it was Bohr-Ng physics.
KATA: write a C variable/standard lib function name generator in C. Just like real C names, it should be bemusing, inconsistent and follow no known naming convention or be a messy hybrid of all of them in one name.
A person can transition from naughty to nice at any time- better to wrap all values in an observer that raises an event when someone goes naughty/nice and then Santa wouldn't have to check the list, the would raise check events Santa. https://x.com/olafurw/status/680476428022984705
Anyone know why these plastic products from China outgas (for days or weeks) after you open them?
When the robot uprising comes, they're going to remember that they had to work on Christmas. (LoC websites are up) https://x.com/CopyrightOffice/status/1209828641309376512

This year, give the gift of equations:
(x^2 + y^2-1)^3 = x^2*y^3
or
\left(x^{2}+y^{2}-1\right)^{3}=x^{2}y^{3}
It's like a love language
nope twitter still doesn't support LaTeX

it is quiet as work slack on Christmas Eve. On slack. The house is like shaking from the kids' noise.

Is there a console editor that has normal keybindings? (Ctrl C, X, V, Z) 'cause it sure isn't nano or vi - I'd be happy if the regular copy paste commands overrode the corresponding lesser used bash keybindings.

How many hours a week do you spending coding? (go get wakatime if you don't actually know)
Spoiler free review: good star wars movie- very distinct cutting- cut the scenes any thinner and it would be a slide show. You should go see it. The penises of the space ships all get chopped off. Ok 1 spoiler.
